 Kids all over the world did more than collecting sweet treats this Halloween. They helped poor children around the world,too. They carried the bright orange donation (募捐) boxes. The box is a signature item (项目)of the  Trick-or-Treat  for  the  United Nations

Children's Fund ( UNICEF) program.

  UNICEF came into being in 1946 to help poor children during World War II. Today,it helps many kids all over the world with clean water,food,health care and good education.

  Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF got its start with a family in 1950. Mary Emma Allison and her three children were shopping after Halloween when they set up a UNICEF group. The group was with an ad : One cent will buy 20 glasses of milk. This gave Allison an idea. Instead of just collecting candy on Halloween,why not do something good and collect money for UNICEF? The following Halloween,the Allisons,their neighbors and their church friends went door-to-door with decorated milk boxes to collect money to send to UNICEF. Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF was born.
